Let's Break It Down: Bioplastics
 

Plastic is bad. We know this.

Companies, restaurants, and people are increasingly reaching for alternatives. But we have to ask: are alternatives like bioplastics really better? And with labels like “made from plants” and “biodegradable” and “compostable plastic,” it’s no wonder we’re all confused. We’re breaking it all down in a quick video.
